Chapter 22: Unpleasantly Painful
Arissa sighed as she looked at her expression in the restroom makeup mirror. She smiled forcefully before watching her face again.
She had just come back from the restaurant. She is now at the hiding hospital Adele is transferred to and with what the doctor said, Adele would be in a coma for two months or more.
It is already unpleasantly painful, and with the marriage, and stuff added, she weakened as they all drain her down greatly. Even breathing became hard for her with each passing second and her eyes stung badly with unshed tears.
Her eyes passed on to look at her ring finger and the sadness watched over her inner self again. She never planned early marriage but each time she does, she always had this plan of a beach wedding with just a simple ring on her finger.
But here she is.
With no ring and not only that, she had no wedding but only lots of signatures on different sets of documents and blackmail at the front of the agreement.
Her eyes blurred and she fastly brought out her small face towel from her bag the moment she realized she was about to cry.
She washed her face softly before using the face towel to wipe her face. She was no crybaby and for the past years, she can perfectly count her tears which are not up to twice but now, those bastards are all playing with her emotions. She sniffed a little teardrop before dabbing it off.
"You don’t have to cry Arissa. This would be one hell of a battle ride and if you are to cry do it with a smile of victory when you trample against bloodsuckers," her inner walls spoke up, communicating with her as usual in her anxiety and distressed state.
Arissa smiled with a stiff jaw before nodding her head to her reflection as if it was the one that just spoke to her.
She turned to her bag but stopped midway because something caught her eye.
